Relax, Tribe Fans. We Are Going To Be Just Fine.

The Cleveland Indians have only just started their season, and I want Tribe fans to enjoy the ride as it happens.

Relax, Tribe Fans. We Are Going To Be Just Fine.

Far too often I've been seeing a lot of panicking going on regarding the Indians. People on social media with hot takes left and right, up and down, side to side, and in a 360 degree angle. Pretty much anywhere and everywhere you look, you can find some kind of negativity or panic loaded remark being made.

I have only a couple words to sum up what this article is going to be about: please calm down. If Corey Kluber has a bad game, people start saying he's a trash pitcher. If our offense is struggling, suddenly we suck. If a hitter strikes out, that hitter shouldn't be on the team anymore. Now, I'm not talking to the people that get frustrated and say minor things stating their annoyance. I'm talking to the people that have insanely huge freak outs over minor circumstances. See what I did there?

Ever since the season started, I have had people on Twitter tweeting me about how bad the Indians are, how their year is over, etc. In April. I repeat, in April. Now how silly does that sound? The Tribe ended April with a winning record and first place. Yet at the beginning of April I already had people telling me they were horrible and that the year was already over just as it had begun.

I don't see this strictly on social media, either. Some days I'll walk into work after a loss and have coworkers telling me how disappointing the Indians are and how they need to step up their game. Give me a break! This is the defending AL champions you're talking about, and a team that just went to the World Series last year.

I'm not writing this article to be negative, and I'm not trying to yell at anyone or call anyone out. I just simply want Indians fans to take a deep breath and understand that this year has just begun. We have many months to go. There's no way of knowing what's to come, so relax and enjoy the ride!

We're going to be just fine.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
